Law Roundup: Woman calls about 'sketchy stuff'

A woman reportedly saw a man with a spoon, blowtorch and knives doing “sketchy stuff” in his car at a clinic. 

A woman requesting a Kalispell Police Department officer to do a civil standby reportedly got upset when one wasn’t immediately available to respond, saying she would “just wait for him to kill me then.” She was at the location and would wait for an officer. 

Officers allegedly had multiple incidents involving a bald bearded man wearing camo pants who went into a business claiming he was running from five people following him in vehicles, trying to kill him. The man, who had been drinking, kept asking officers responding to the scene to take him to jail. They declined his request and moved him along. 

A man allegedly showed up to an appointment reeking of alcohol and staff refused to assist him. Someone reportedly called the police to tell them they heard third-hand information he drove there and that they were calling an Uber and wanted law enforcement to be aware of the situation so they could handle it “per policy.” The person called back when the highly intoxicated man refused an Uber and was about to leave but then fell and injured his hand. A sober ride in the form of an ambulance arrived. Officers took his keys. 

A boxer dog was reportedly left in a Honda CRV with the windows up. 

A neighbor driving up a street and stopped at a house when they allegedly heard a woman and child screaming inside and banging sounds. The person called the police when they knocked on the door and no one answered but the screaming continued with a woman yelling, “How can you do this to me?” Dispatch heard shrieking and thudding sounds in the background of the call and someone screaming, “Please help me.” A man the neighbor reportedly had to keep asking to leave the residence had returned when the verbal disturbance ensued. Officers advised the man, who left in a van belonging to his mother, he could not go on the property, or he would be considered trespassing.
